A ride through the large apple growing area of the Granite Belt. A lot of the farms along this route were soldier settlers blocks where returned service men took up blocks after WWI. A lot of bitumen country roads in this area where you can extend the ride by a few kilometres or a lot.

A loop in the high country of the Granite Belt – truly riding in the Great Divide.
Hills can be challenging, but a lovely ride back down.

A longer ride if returning to the start or arrange to be picked up in either Stanthorpe if riding from Tenterfield or Tenterfield if starting in Stanthorpe.

The ride follows the Mt Lindsay Road and is a very pretty route.

A long ride but take along a change of clothes and stay at the local hotels that are full of charm and rural Australian hospitality. The scenery changes many times along the way, making it a very interesting ride.

A very challenging ride, refreshments along the way at Queen Mary Falls Café and Spring Creek Café.
Absolutely spectacular scenery and lookouts.

A circuit of the southern area of the Granite Belt. Some lovely views, a hard ride up but a beautiful ride back down to Ballandean and the same from Ballandean along to Glen Aplin up Thorndale Rd and down to Broadwater.
